Once again you're the exception ... everyone here who isn't posting from prison due to being jailed after committing multiple homicides with a gun and bullets they "found" is the exception.

You want a loaded gun in easy access to use for "protection" ... OK but if that falls into the wrong hands, the damage is limited.

LA riots - and if you had to use 100 bullets to defend yourself, the cops will have to document it and waive the $99 tax for those.

In the 22 years since then ... we have had exactly how many more of those ?

Cool.

Oh yea you're going to be shooting an intruder in your house from 100ft away that you need the "Practice" ? dude, the self protection isn't for assasinating people. You're mean to shoot someone point blank or close to it ... else you're a sniper.

Simple answers sometimes are ... but sometimes they aren't (Like the 999 plan of that Pizza baron in the repiblicon primaries).

What is simple also changes ... 20 years ago, a motorcycle mechanic used to shudder @ the very mention of a fuel injected motorcycle ... Today you show them a carburetor they ask ... what the hell is that ?

Cool.

There's a video on you tube of a guy killing a wild boar with a pellet gun. I've got a RWS pellet gun that cost more than my deer rifle. Its scoped and deadly to 75 yards. I've got a crossbow I've killed four deer with. Take away a murderers gun theres plenty other tools to use. If I'm a mechanic and you take away my wrench I'll grab a pair of pliers. May not be as neat but I'll get the job done. When your "government" tells you that you don't need your guns, that is when you REALLY need them.

How many houses will be broken into tonight in Charlotte where you live?

I dont think the govt is telling you you dont need your guns.

The govt is telling you we are going to keep records on who has guns. When you become a criminal, your guns need to be confiscated, along with your gun license and good citizen badge.
That law BTW the NRA supported, till they decided to oppose it. BTW it is on the books as a law, and since they want all the laws to be enforced, it should be as well.

What the govt is implying is that your guns are toys compared to what we got. You dont need it to over throw us. Its a joke what you have, so you can forget about having guns to protect yourself against us.

Cool.

Everyone loves to get all worked up.  The plain fact is that the Sandy Hook killings were, what, about 6 or 7 weeks ago?  In that time, how many kids have been killed by abusive babysitters, parents, or others who were supposed to be looking out for them?  I don't know, but I bet it's more than 20.  How about car accidents with parents on cell phones?

Of course, I am saddened every time an innocent person, child or adult, meets an untimely demise at the hands of another.  But, no endeavor of mankind will ever be 100% save, and all things have to be taken in context.

And please don't quote me the total number of people killed with any sort of firearm, unless you divide that total number out into the numbers of those killings involving drug deals gone bad, gangsters killing one another, or addicts killing one another, about all of whom I say, Good Riddance. A very high percentage of these deaths are suffered by people who, to me, have little or no value to society, and who are mostly a danger to us all.

Any death of a child is saddening no matter the cause!

As far as the "gun spraying fool", don't let them sit on death row for years, carry out the sentence as soon as possible!

I work with abused children and it is sickening how the justice system lets perpetrators and murders off with light sentences.

Don't blame the tool instead blame/punish the sick person wielding the tool.
